ace’s blog

PayPerPost.com has paid me $43 since I’ve started using their service. I think it is an awesome service that everybody should make use of. They have a blog that keeps their users up to date on what’s going on with them. I don’t have it on my bloglines list of blogs to read but I do visit it every once in a while just so I know what’s going on with the place. The money I’ve made so far pays for half of my hosting for the year and that was my goal from the beginning. I really didn’t think that the service would pan out and that it would have folded by now but so far, all is well.

Advertises can use the service and can advertise on blogs by utilizing the PayPerPost service.PayPerPost.com paid for this post.

So this is my first weekend in Orlando and what am I doing? Am I out drinking and partying and acting like a bachelor? Nope! I’m here at 9:30 pm on a Friday night writing a blog post on my new work laptop while I take a breather setting it all up and installing my much used software. Whew, long sentence…

I had intentions of coming home and seeing if Tania and her boyfriend wanted to go get wings at Ker’s Wing House, my treat but Tania went out and I sat around. I ate some chips because I was insanely hungry and was going to talk to Meri and Aaron and then head out for a few beers and some wings. Well the chips did a number on my stomach and now I feel like shit. You know that warm, clammy feeling you get in your stomach when somethings just not right? Well that’s me right now, feeling shitty.

I did mention that I got my new laptop from work. It’s bad ass. It is a Dell Inspiron with dual Centrino 2 GHz processors, 2 GB of RAM and it has a widescreen screen to boot. My current resolution on this laptop is 1680 x 1050. Well I think that’s cool…

Anyway, work is going alright. I’m not sure if I made a mistake or not taking this job but I just have to keep telling myself that the move is better for the family and I will be learning a ton of new stuff here and things in the future will be better. Once I can get the database figured out, things will be much better.

Meri just called me for the third time telling me that Aaron isn’t going to bed for her tonight. She has done amazingly well getting him to bed since they’ve been up in MA. Normally, I put Aaron to bed and it has basically been the norm since Aaron decided he didn’t need boobs to go to sleep.

I’m going down to Tampa tomorrow to hang out with my friend Bernard and a bunch of his other friends. I have a sneaky suspicion that I will be the only white person there. This will be the first time I’ve seen Bernard’s condo since he bought it. It will be great to see him again, it’s been well over a year since we’ve hung out.

My first weeked at this job and I have to work over it! As if the 12 hour days weren’t enough, I have to do this too? I asked how much I would be asked to work on a weekend and they told me that it was a rare occassion. I suppose they will tell me that when I have to do it again!

Wow, reading over this post and it appears that I have had a lot to blog about since I’ve only put up one very small blurb since I moved down here a week ago! I guess I should keep doing the blogging thing…if I have time that is.

I’ve been so busy at work that I haven’t had a chance to even look at any PHP or AJAX code. Before this week, I hadn’t written a line of PHP or AJAX code in two weeks prior to me moving down here! I may lose my touch. Too bad huh? I’ll just have to fall back on my Lansa Web development skills. That’s ok, they pay better than PHP/AJAX coding.

Alright, CSI Miami is going to start in about 15 minutes and I have to watch it since I can’t record it since the house I’m staying at doesn’t have a DVR! This woman is living in the stone ages!

Well I’m in Orlando now.  I made it here in about twelve and a half hours.  Google maps said 16; yahoo maps said just over 13.  I found a good little pack of cars from Alabama to Florida and we all rode at about 90 or 95.  It is good to be back in Florida!

Well I’m back from my vacation in Bermuda.

The cruise was great, the island was gorgeous and the food was awesome (so awesome that I gained 10 pounds!).

I’m tired from all of my travels and dealings with family, both blood and the in-law type so I will post a single picture for now.
